Spring Fever and Saint Patrick's Day

We have finally begun getting some warmer weather and the snow is almost gone!! I know that March and even April are very unpredictable months in NY weather wise, but it is hard not to get excited for some nicer weather to be able to spend time outside, especially since Gavin loves it so much!

Last week we were able to go on several walks to enjoy the beautiful weather. Gavin was so excited to be outside in the fresh air and not be all bundled up. He was talking away, smiling and laughing at the different things we saw on our walk through Valkill.

"HI!"


Watching the water:




Our yummy Saint Patrick's Day dinner:


Corned beef, garlic cabbage and roasted "Angela" potatoes (Scott's name for them). It was really good!

When we went for our walk last Friday I got some pictures of some of the wildlife we came across.


It is a little hard to see, but there are several frogs in the previous picture. There is a small pond on Valkill that is filled with frogs. They make a lot of noise, it is pretty funny to watch them going crazy in there.

On our walk back to the house, Gavin decided he would test out how his stroller tastes:


I am actually wondering what took him so long to try it because that was his first taste. Then within a few minutes, that crazy kid fell asleep in his stroller. This is the same kid that pretty much refuses to sleep in his car seat and he falls asleep in his stroller! Unbelievable!


After his nap, we spent the rest of the afternoon outside playing in the backyard. Gavin was in such a good mood and was having so much fun. I took a lot of pictures, but I will only share a few of the best ones, especially since I have already posted so many!
